    The McLaren is powered by a BMW 6.1 Liter V12 engine producing 627 hp with a 0-60 mph time of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 230-240 mph.

    The original McLaren F1 was started in 1991 and 64 cars were made. The LM model was introduced in 1993 with 5 cars built. The GT model had 3 cars. Finally, in 1995, the GTR was introduced, and over the next 3 years, 28 cars were built. Unfortunately, production stopped in May 1998 after only 100 cars were built.

    "Officially the world's fastest production roadcar with a logged speed of 240.1 mph, the McLaren F1 also holds the record for the fastest lap speed on a UK circuit: 195.3 mph.... 1998: Broke own record at Ehra-Lessien, Germany in the McLaren F1 XP5, taking it to 240.1 mph"
